To make up for the lack of stamps, I pulled out just about everything else! The little white dog is cut on my silhouette, choppy shading and details done with prismacolor pencils. His eyes and nose are painted with acrylic paint and a liner brush. Heart is cutout of watercolor paper and I used my pan watercolors to give it some pink and gray hues. Lettering was done with Pitt pens. Stitch detail with gel pen. You should see my desk!
When I'm down, my dogs make me feel better. I hope this little guy does the same for someone else.

Oh my! The dogs in our family are great comforters too! I love your puppy. What attention to detail you have shown in his little paw pads, eyes and nose. Great colouring. I love the dimension you have given your heart and your hand lettering is super! I would never attempt that. :-) Love this card!
